Hi,

How can we create a variant in VA05 to make it available in the display variant list?do we need any authorization?

Thanks,

Display variants can be administered in the result list, not at the selection screen. Do not mix up 'display variants' with normal variants which are a mere set of input-parameters.

To gain access to the 'administraion' and 'save' functions of the display variant, you need to have Parameter ID SD_VARIANT_MAINTAIN on your user with value 'A'.

Yes you will need authorization. But to start in the first screen put in one customer. Execute and go to the next screen. There you will have the option to save your variant. Set it up the way you want it and save the variant. Go back and it will be available for selection. The variant creates on the second screen.

pls assign points to say thanks.
